Show content of external page without the use of iframe

[arscommunication]

Hi there,

I have a problem on one of my websites. For client galleries I use the service from Pixieset. They can access their wedding photos with a password. I embedded the page with an iframe. It used to work perfectly fine but now nothing happens if they enter their password. Therefore, I wrote to the customer support of Pixieset first and that’s what they wrote:

Pixieset has not been designed to be embedded into other websites, such as through the use of iframes. We wouldn’t recommend embedding a gallery this way, as this may not display collections in their intended format and can lead to unwanted glitches and errors, as you’ve noticed.
You can, however, create a custom link that leads clients directly to your gallery homepage, or to any specific gallery on your account. Since you currently have an upgraded Client Gallery plan you also have access to create a Custom Domain, which helps to maintain your brand’s cohesiveness:
Setting up Custom Domain for your Client Gallery

Now I’m wondering if there is any other way than to use an iframe to display an external page directly within my website. Do you have an idea on how I could achieve that?

Hey @arscommunication,

Thanks for reaching out!

There are other ways to pull data from another website using API but it depends on their end if they have API to access their data. Please reach out to Pixieset if they have one available and the API will involve customization which falls outside the scope of our theme support. You may seek 3rd party developers to help you or you can avail of One Total Care for the implementation.

Or you can follow the recommendation from Pixieset to create a custom link from your website and redirect them to your custom domain for your brands.

Hope that helps and thank you for understanding.
